2018 Bird Report / latest heron pictures

Courtesy of our bird recorder, Steve Carter, you can now read our 2018 bird report here. Read the full article for some headlines of Steve's report and also to see two new pictures from our offshore heron cameras.

March 2019

Steve's report gives a month by month as well as a species by species account of birds seen on or around the reserve during 2018.Highlights include woodcock in January and Great White Egret in May.

Meanwhile some great pictures continue to be gathered from our offshore heron cameras. See above for an example taken on February 24th. It shows a bird on the nest on which our fixed camera is focussed. Another picture, below, taken on the same day, shows a bird hunkered down on one of several nests within range of our new rotatable and zooomable camera. We wonder whether she is sitting on eggs.
